Who is going to buy an empty ibrox.

 

Loads of people who can see an income stream from the club in the future? Perhaps Ashley?

 

It may end up being a lot cheaper than you'd think it would be and lots of people may be happy to pay, say £15m for it with a potential return of say £1m pa (or more), with the downside being that the club folds or moves somewhere else and you end up with a plot of land that may have some value in other ways.

people have got fed up and have walked with all the goings on sick of the board and change of boards and the money paid to members of the board , then there is the dire football being dished up week after week and lots of people are fed up with all these fans groups that have came to existence lots of fans might never come back if all this stuff is not resolved sooner rather than later we could end up being just another team , I would urge the fans to get into the stadium support the team let the board know you are not happy

A certain obsessed blogger from Donegal wrote a blog on Saturday stating that Ashley's recently had surveyors at Ibrox and that a complete repair & refurb could cost around £20m.

I suspect the 14,500 that trapped at Ibrox yesterday(myself included) were part of the biggest crowd of the fourth round of the Scottish Cup?

 

As mentioned in the Preview of yesterday's game, I also attended Ibrox 40 years past for the 4th round tie against Dundee. Sixty-five thousand watched us being pumped 0-3.

Butter is being spread ever more thinner in Scottish football.

In the absence of significant broadcast and commercial income, match-day revenue is vital. When that starts dipping below certain numbers, it has consequences.

 

Tendency will be towards community clubs and some having to go part-time.

Is that his latest then? Will anyone take him seriously do you think? You've got to hand it to the likes of him, Spiers etc that regards Rangers over these past few years they have been consistent.Consistently WRONG that is.

The oldco collapse was almost totally about Whyte's fraudulent takeover and running of Rangers as opposed to the BTC which they kept telling us Rangers would lose. How did the FTTT and UTTT go again ? Should the BTC finally disappear then it would be a fair assumption to make that the oldco was never insolvent.

Now are they saying the stadium is falling down ? LOL. A bit like the asbestos nonsense in the main stand. How long did that one last before someone pointed out white asbestos wasn't used in construction when the main stand got built nearly 100 years ago.

One thing though you do learn about these people is that when they accuse you of something it's because they're up to something similar themselves. When Rangers got accused of cheating by using EBT's and not paying the tax on them they were doing all sorts of dodgy land deals with their political chums to use them as security on ultra soft loans from the basketcase Co-op bank.Not to mention all the public money spent on the San Giro for the purpose of one evening for the CG opening ceremony which should have been held at Hampden anyway as it was the main athletics arena.

No I suspect there may be another reason behind the claim. it is because there is problems at their stadium. I can recall reading at the time after it was built that it had been done on the cheap and would require extensive work in 20 years time. Those 20 years are nearly up now.....

Lie, deflect, deny. Their tactics never change do they?

Scottish football simply cannot support 42 senior clubs. Someone has to grasp the nettle and have two leagues of 10 of 12. The rest of the clubs can join the amateur or junior leagues.

 

P.s. I was hearing on Saturday night another SPL , sorry SPFL premiership club is heading towards administration. Listening to Liewell about 'Sporting Integrity' and booting Rangers out the SPL is proving fatal for some of these clubs and their gullible chairmen

In this case, it wouldn't surprise me in the slightest if Ashley's had surveyors in to compile a report and it also wouldn't surprise me if their estimates for a total Ibrox repair/refurb bill were completely astronomical.

 

We already know that there's a massive amount of work needing done on the stadium. That is not news and nor is it fabricated timmy nonsense. It is a fact.

Sadly certain parts contained in that blog are extremely accurate.

 

The part about the lifts are bang on, and in order to bring Ibrox up to standards UEFA are adopting in regards to disabled facilities if Rangers want to play European games at Ibrox then the costs for installing the required disabled facilities alone will be in the millions.

It is a shitehole though. Decrepit and neglected. It needs so much work done to it back to front, top to bottom.
